- the present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an optical transmission technology based on polarization multiplexing.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an optical transmission system based on polarization multiplexing in a 100Gb/s optical transmission network.
- an optical source from a laser is split by a coupler into two optical signals with a single state of polarization.
- Four 28Gb/s input data signals (also known as electrical signals), namely, DATA1, DATA2, DATA3, and DATA4, are modulated onto two optical signals through a differential quadrature phase shifter keying (Differential Quadrature Phase Shifter Keying, DQPSK) modulator; for example, DATA1 and DATA2 are modulated onto an X optical signal, and DATA3 and DATA4 are modulated onto a Y optical signal, the X and Y optical signals respectively carrying 56Gb/s data.
- the X and Y optical signals are combined into one optical signal, which carries 112Gb/s data, through a polarization beam combiner (Polarization Beam Combiner, also known as Polarization Combiner, PBC).
- the received optical signal is split into two optical signals by a beam splitter (also known as an optical splitter); the two optical signals respectively enter a polarization controller (Polarization Controller, PC), where a state of polarization (State Of Polarization, SOP) of the two optical signals is rotated and controlled; the optical signal after being rotated and controlled is input into a polarization beam splitter (Polarization Beam Splitter, also known as Polarization Splitter, PBS); and an X' optical signal having the same state of polarization but a slightly lower power as to the X optical signal and a Y' optical signal having the same state of polarization but a slightly lower power as to the Y optical signal are restored.
- the X' and Y' optical signals are respectively restored into four 28Gb/s data signals DATA1, DATA2, DATA3, and DATA4 through a DQPSK demodulator.
- the PC is controlled through a feedback loop, and a feedback signal in the feedback loop is the crosstalk power of the optical signals of different states of polarization among the optical signals.
- a feedback signal in the feedback loop is the crosstalk power of the optical signals of different states of polarization among the optical signals.
- the optical signal is an optical signal with a single state of polarization
- a minimum magnitude of the feedback signal is provided.
- An optical depolarization and demultiplexing module in the feedback loop controls the PC in real time based on a principle that the magnitude of the feedback signal is minimum, so that the PBS outputs an optical signal with a single state of polarization, namely, the X or Y optical signal.
- an upper and a lower branch at the receiving end of the preceding system work independently, so that four possible combinations of the optical signals with the single state of polarization output by the upper and lower branches are:
- Combination 2 is a correct combination mode, and in Combination 3, the original frame format may be restored by using a multi-lane reordering technology. In Combinations 1 and 4, half of the data signals may get lost, so that such combinations must be avoided.

This enables the PBSs at the upper and lower branches to output the optical singles with a single state of polarization, namely, the X optical signal and the Y optical signal.
- the process of controlling the polarization controller is called a feedback control process.
- the feedback control process may include searching, tracking, and co-direction judgment. That is, the searching module, the tracking module, the co-direction judger, and the output control module in this embodiment implement the feedback control process.
- the purpose of the feedback control process is to ensure that the magnitude of the feedback signal is stable at a minimum value and the state of polarization controls by the polarization controllers on the optical signals are neither the same nor similar.
- the search and tracking operation in the feedback control process includes two stages:
- the co-direction judger receives the control quantities output by the searching modules or the tracking modules in the two feedback control loops, and compares the control quantities of the two branches to determine whether they are the same or similar. When the co-direction judger determines that the two control quantities are the same or similar, at least one of the searching modules at the two feedback control loops re-enters the search stage to ensure that the control quantities of the two branches are neither the same nor similar. Generally, the co-direction judger triggers one searching module to enable the searching module to re-enter the search stage.
- FIG. 3A shows an example in which the searching module, the tracking module, and the co-direction judger respectively perform the searching, tracking, and co-direction judgment functions.
- Lane 1 and Lane 2 are two feedback control loops.
- the searching modules at Lane 1 and Lane 2 respectively perform initialization.
- the searching modules at Lane 1 and Lane 2 respectively conduct the preliminary search, that is, the searching module generates a group of control quantities, and records the depolarization degree of each control quantity.
- the depolarization degree may be embodied by the magnitude of the feedback signal, so that the magnitude of the feedback signal of each control quantity may be recorded.
- the searching modules at Lane 1 and Lane 2 respectively enter the search convergence stage, that is, the searching module selects the control quantity with a desirable polarization degree based on the recorded polarization degrees, and then outputs the control quantity.
- the searching module at Lane 1 outputs a control quantity 1 and transmits the control quantity 1 to the co-direction judger and the tracking module at Lane 1; and optionally, the searching module at Lane 1 may also output the magnitude of the feedback signal of the control quantity 1 to the tracking module at Lane 1, so that the tracking module at Lane 1 may start tracking by taking the control quantity 1 and the magnitude of the feedback signal of the control quantity 1 as the start point.
- the searching module at Lane 2 outputs a control quantity 2 and transmits the control quantity 2 to the co-direction judger.
- the tracking module at Lane 1 tracks the magnitude of the feedback signal of the control quantity 1 based on a principle that the magnitude of the feedback signal is minimum.
- the magnitude of the feedback signal of the control quantity 1 is the magnitude of the feedback signal corresponding to the control quantity 1.
- the co-direction judger compares the received control quantity 1 and control quantity 2 to judge whether they are the same or similar. If the control quantity 1 and the control quantity 2 are the same or similar, the co-direction judger notifies the searching module at Lane 2 to adjust the control quantities. That is, the searching module at Lane 2 re-searches for the control quantity based on the notification from the co-direction judger, outputs a group of new control quantities, selects a control quantity from this group of new control quantities based on a principle that the magnitude of the feedback signal is minimum to determine the adjusted control quantity, and then transmits the adjusted control quantity to the tracking module at Lane 2.
- the tracking module at Lane 2 By taking the adjusted control quantity and the magnitude of the feedback signal of the adjusted control quantity output by the searching module as the start point, the tracking module at Lane 2 starts tracking the magnitude of the feedback signal of the adjusted control quantity based on the principle that the magnitude of the feedback signal is minimum. If the co-direction judger judges that the control quantity 1 and the control quantity 2 are neither the same nor similar during the preceding judgment process, the tracking module at Lane 2, by taking the control quantity 2 and the magnitude of the feedback signal output by the searching module as the start point, starts tracking the magnitude of the feedback signal of the control quantity 2 based on the principle that the magnitude of the feedback signal is minimum to ensure that the magnitude of the feedback signal is stable at a minimum value.
- the co-direction judger still judges whether the control quantities at the two lanes are the same or similar, and the searching module at Lane 2 still re-searches for the control quantities under the control of the co-direction judger; after the searching module outputs the re-searched control quantities, the tracking module at Lane 2 starts tracking based on the control quantities re-searched by the searching module until the co-direction judger judges that the control quantities at the two lanes are neither the same nor similar.
- the PBSs at Lane 1 and Lane 2 output optical signals which respectively have a single state of polarization, the two states of polarization being orthogonal.
- the PBS at Lane 1 outputs the X optical signal
- the PBS at Lane 2 outputs the Y optical signal
- the PBS at Lane 1 outputs the Y optical signal
- the PBS at Lane 2 outputs the X optical signal.
- the X and Y optical signals respectively output by Lane 1 and Lane 2 may be efficiently depolarized by the tracking modules at the respective lanes.
- the re-search operation for the control quantities by the preceding searching module at Lane 2 is also called a jump operation.
- An example of the jump operation is as follows. Lane 2 re-enters the searching module, and the searching module at Lane 2 randomly generates a group of new control quantities and selects a control quantity in this group of new control quantities; that is, the searching module at Lane 2 randomly searches for the control quantity.
- the searching module at Lane 2 transmits the randomly searched control quantity to the tracking module and the co-direction judger at Lane 2. If the preceding randomly searched new control quantity is still the same as or similar to the control quantity at Lane 1, the preceding jump operation is repeated until the control quantity randomly searched by the searching module at Lane 2 is neither the same as nor similar to the control quantity at Lane 1.
- FIG. 3B illustrates the structure of the co-direction judger that conducts jump control.
- the co-direction judger in FIG. 3B includes: a judger and a jump control module.
- the control quantities output by the searching modules at Lane 1 and Lane 2 are respectively provided to the tracking modules at the respective lanes, and the tracking modules respectively start tracking by taking the control quantities provided by the searching modules as the start point.
- the system may be unstable, the control quantities may be adjusted too much, and the tracked minimum magnitude of the feedback signal may change too much. Therefore, the tracking conducted by the tracking module during this period may be called the preliminary tracking.
- the control quantities may be adjusted a bit, and the minimum magnitude of the feedback signal may change a bit, and the tracking module enters the tracking state.
- the tracking module may use the same tracking algorithm at the preliminary tracking stage and after entering the tracking state.
- the judger judges whether the control quantities at Lane 1 and Lane 2 are the same or similar; and if the control quantities at Lane 1 and Lane 2 are the same or similar, the judger outputs a jump control signal, namely, a jump instruction.
- the jump control module triggers the searching module at either of the two lanes to re-search for the control quantity.
- the jump control module may also transmit a jump instruction to the tracking module to notify the tracking module to stop tracking.
- the tracking module starts tracking by taking the received control quantity and magnitude of the feedback signal as the start point.
- the tracking module may receive the jump instruction output by the jump control module either at the preliminary tracking stage or after entering the tracking state.
- the judgment process conducted by the co-direction judger in this embodiment may be implemented by using a judgment algorithm.
- the judgment algorithm for implementing the judgment process may be embedded into a PC control process.
- the PC control process may be implemented by using a PC control algorithm. Therefore, the judgment algorithm may be embedded into the PC control algorithm, and the PC control algorithm may be used to implement the process for the feedback control loop and the co-direction judging module to control the PC.
- the system for optical transmission based on polarization multiplexing may control the convergence direction (for example, tracking the X or Y lane) well in real time, and achieve a quick response.
- the output control modules at the two branches conduct state of polarization rotation control for the polarization controllers at the respective branches, so that the PBSs at the two branches are enabled to output optical signals which respectively have a single state of polarization, the two polarization directions being orthogonal.
- the X' optical signal output by the PBS at the upper branch carries the 56Gb/s data carried by the X optical signal
- the Y' optical signal output by the PBS at the lower branch carries the 56Gb/s data carried by the Y optical signal
- two 28Gb/s data signals are restored respectively, namely, DATA1, DATA2, DATA3, and DATA4.
- FIG. 3C illustrates changes of the state of polarization (State Of Polarization, SOP) of the optical signals passing through the receiving device in FIG. 3 .
- the states of polarization of the optical signals at the upper and lower branches before entering the polarization controllers are the same, but the states of polarization of the optical signals output by the polarization controllers at the upper and lower branches are different.
- the PBSs at the upper and lower branches are enabled to output optical signals which respectively have a single state of polarization, the states of polarization being orthogonal, that is, the X' optical signal and the Y' optical signal.
- the polarization controller in this embodiment may include a plurality of wave plates.
- the wave plates may be driven by a voltage to rotate; and the angle of the wave plate is respectively corresponding to the control voltage of the polarization controller.

- FIG. 3E shows an example in which the receiving device distributes the OTU frames to the 20 lanes. Because the existing distribution process may be used, FIG. 3E is not described in detail herein.
- the serial number of each lane may be identified by the information carried in the FAS of the OTU frame. If Lane 1 at the receiving device side outputs the Y optical signal and Lane 2 outputs the X optical signal, the receiving device outputs data in this order: Lanes 11 to 20 and Lanes 1 to 10.
- the MLD reorders the 20 lanes based on the serial numbers of the channels in the frame header FAS of the OTU frame. After alignment, the MLD restores Lanes 1 to 20 and thereby restores the OTU frame correctly.
